Category: Research

In the dynamic and high-risk environment of offshore oil rig operations, ensuring workplace safety is not merely a regulatory requirement but a critical determinant of operational success and worker well-being. Recognizing the profound impact of safety culture on incident rates, our team of consultants and creators developed the SCORE program (SCORE stands for Safety, Culture, Observation, Recognition, Engagement) in partnership with one of our client organizations, a Southern US energy company, in 2021. The SCORE initiative aimed to transform the company’s approach to safety by integrating a sophisticated employee recognition system with proactive safety management strategies.

The results? A remarkable 68.18% drop in safety incidents over just three years and the rise of a deeply rooted culture of accountability, awareness, and continuous improvement. These accomplishments underscore the value of safety as a strategic investment in the cultural foundation of an organization. Read the full report by downloading our whitepaper below.
